Former YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki has passed away after a battle with lung cancer. Her husband shared the news on Facebook, describing her as a brilliant mind, loving mother, and dear friend. Wojcicki played a significant role in Google’s early days and was the CEO of YouTube for nine years. She stepped down from her leadership role last year to focus on family, health, and personal projects. Her tenure at YouTube coincided with the platform’s transition to social media and the increasing scrutiny of online platforms for spreading harmful content.
